Hey all. I am a new beardie owner and am having trouble with my little guy (who is actually not so little). I inherited him by complete chance from a roomie's boyfriend, and I've never had a lizard before. I just want to do right by him.
He has been doing well the last couple of months I've had him. I went away for two weeks for Thanksgiving Break, and he was reported by the caretaker to have been lethargic and to stay in the same place all day, day to day. I came home and he definitely perked up a lot, but for the past week he has been exactly as described...lethargic, unresisting when I pick him up (his previous owner barely handled him), uninterested in greens (this isn't really anything new, but I am concerned about it, because they are supposed to be 80% of his diet), never drinks the water I put on the tip of his snout (never has) and, basically, doesn't even bother moving around that much. He has a sleepy, half-lidded expression most of the time, and hasn't gone to the bathroom in about five days. Otherwise he is of good color, and was starting to shed a little bit, but only a patch at his elbow flaked off, and nothing else. His tail has a weird grey patch near the end on one side, and that patch is very sensitive to the touch, he twitches every time i brush my finger against it.
His tank may not be warm enough, but for now, that is the only thing I could see that might be causing the issue...and i am working very diligently on remedying that ASAP. What is going on???
